Condition Report
The lot is in good overall condition with scratches and small dents in keeping with general wear. The pin is slightly bent and discoloured. There is a slight tear to one of the petals, stable and small. The diamond appears bright, estimated diamond weight 0.07ct, the diamond is too small to accurately assess colour/clarity grades. Please see important notices for purchasers in the catalogue for Coloured Gemstones. The demantoid garnets are well matched, one appears slightly less vibrant than the others, one with horsetail inclusion, moderate-significant abrasions. Wear to the gilt finish.
